Experience tomorrow the best of
Muscat with Withlocals

"We had an afternoon trip with Hajer and it was most enjoyable. From the Grand Mosque to the Portuguese forts, from the beach to the Muttrah souk, this was a thoroughly enjoyable and interesting trip. Hajer is an exceptional guide: sensitive to the wishes of the people she is showing around, but also able to come up with an excellent tour which gives you a real flavour of the beautiful city of Muscat. She is intelligent, interesting in her own right and a source of much information. We even finished up at a typical Multan bbq kiosk and enjoyed our mishkak and camel burgers! Lots of lovely touches - a stop for high quality coffee, dates in the car - all added to a great day!"

"We took the five-hour city tour of Muscat with Yousuf, and it was an outstanding experience. Exploring this beautiful city with him was an absolute delight. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide—he was engaging, a fantastic storyteller, and had incredible insights into the history of Oman. Yousuf was also very flexible, happily accommodating changes to our itinerary. At every stop, he shared fascinating details that deepened our understanding of the country and its major attractions. In just a few hours, we learned so much! If you’re looking for an exceptional guide and an unforgettable tour, Yousuf is the perfect choice. We hope to return to Oman and explore the desert with him next time!"

"We had an amazing half-day tour in Muscat with Hajer! She was incredibly friendly, super nice, and made the experience truly enjoyable. We got to see so many beautiful sights around the city, and the visit to the souk was absolutely fabulous. Hajer’s knowledge and warm personality made the tour even more special. Highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Muscat!"

"We had a great time on Hajer’s tour. As well as seeing all the main attractions, she took us to some of her favourite spots in and around Muscat including a lovely local fish restaurant and sweet parlour. Hajer was very knowledgeable and interesting and answered our many questions! Overall, a great way to see Muscat with a super guide and vehicle. "

"Highly enjoyable and informative evening tour of Muscat with Yousaf Ali - exactly what we’d hoped for. Yousaf was great at reading his audience and delivering! We’d already seen a good bit of Muscat by day, and also a trip to Nizwa etc, so we were keen to hear about Oman/Muscat’s history and current affairs, mixed with getting a different view of old Muscat by night. Friendly, enthusiastic and informative, a great evening trip and would highly recommend Yousaf to others (in fact we already did to someone else staying in our hotel!)"

"Issam came to pick us up at our hotel. We toured the main landmarks of Muscat (Royal Palace, Mosque...), the Souk, and also went to the Amouage factory. Being with our guide allowed us to learn a bit about the Omanian culture. Overall, we were satisfied with the tour and got a good 1st impression of Oman, knowing that there is a lot of more to see in the country... but this will be for another trip."

"We had the pleasure of experiencing a personalized tour of Muscat with Issam and it was truly unforgettable! From the moment we met him, his warm personality and deep passion for his country shone through. He carefully tailored the tour to our interests, ensuring we got to enjoy incredible sites, indulge in delicious local food, and learn so much about Oman’s fascinating history and culture. Issam’s knowledge is impressive, and his ability to speak multiple languages made the experience seamless and enjoyable. It was wonderful to see how much pride he takes in sharing Oman with visitors, and his enthusiasm is absolutely contagious. Thanks to Issam, we left with not only amazing memories but also a deeper appreciation for this beautiful country. If you’re looking for a guide who truly loves what he does and goes above and beyond, Issam is the one to choose- I’m just sad we didn’t find him earlier in our trip! Highly recommend!"

"I was delighted to meet Hajer who I had been messaging on the app. She is extremely responsive and helpful even before meeting her! She arrived in a very comfortable 4 x 4 which she drove with great confidence and care all over the city. She is incredibly proud of her country and its people and shared so much of her knowledge with me, including sampling three treats which reflect street food in the city. Seeing Muscat lit up in the dark was a real treat and created a very different atmosphere to what can be experienced during the day, I highly recommend it. There were so many highlights, the beautiful mosque with the golden domes, the Opera House with its glistening white marble and the Sultan’s Palace. However, for me, meeting such an engaging young woman was a highlight, I felt as if I had known her for years such was her warmth and kindness."

"Hajer did an amazing job taking us around Oman. She picked us up in a nice/clean vehicle. She took us to the main attractions, tea house, sweet shop and helped us have an easy shopping experience at the souk. She responded to our messages in a timely order. I can’t recommend her enough!!"

"Nasser gave me the best tour of the city and is very knowledgeable about the history of the city! I recommend him for your experiences in Oman! I hope to book him again when I go back"
